It is amazing to me how many times throughout a day I repeat words (see below) to keep my heart held high. Emotionally it is draining but the option is devastation to my soul...so when it comes down to it, there is no other option than besides these words...
"Blessed be Your Name, in the land that is plentiful
where streams of abundance flow, Blessed be Your Name
Blessed be Your Name, when I'm found in the desert place
Though I walk through the wilderness, Blessed be Your Name
Blessed be Your Name, when the sun's shining down on me
Blessed be Your name, when the world is all as it should be
Blessed be Your Name, on the road mark with suffering
Blessed be Your Name, though there is pain in the offering
Every blessing you pour out on, turn back to praise,
When the darkness closes in Lord, still I will say
Blessed be Your Name of the Lord, Blessed be Your Name...
Blessed be Your glorious name
You give and take away...My heart will chose to say Lord blessed be your name"
I will never understand why abuse is a part of my story or is still happening to millions of innocent children and adults across the globe. My heart will never understand...
However, with more conviction, I humbly stand tall and say this journey is not about me. I believe with all my heart the suffering I endured was meant for a story I will understand someday, because at the end of the day, this journey is not about me.
It is about, "Blessed be Your Name..."
